@ShreeKrishna Similar questions (see this and this) were already asked regarding Rama, so I'd suggest to make this a question just about Parashurama. Else it might be closed as a duplicate.– Say No To CensorshipJun 1, 2016 at 16:37

There are different types of avataras - purna & avesha . Source
- purna avatara (Rama) - Lord himself
- avesha avatara : These itself are of 2 types :
Parashurama (all powers of Lord endowed within a jivatma)
Kartaviryarjuna (some powers of Lord endowed within a jivatma)
These are in decreasing order of shakti, so Rama defeated Parashuram who defeated Kartiviryarjuna.
So, yes, Parashurama realized that Rama was a purna avatar after he grabbed vishnu dhanus from him, and offered all his tapas to Rama realizing that his time was over, then went for more penance in mountains.
